Lancets

[suzywoozie]

Hi everyone, I've just received my first testing kit and it only had 10 lancets in it. They say to use a new lancet every time, and I am wondering - is that really necessary, or is it ok to use the same one a few times? Thank you

I use mine until it starts to really hurt, usually about a month.

I change after each test.

I use mine about 10 times then it starts to hurt so I replace it. (My body is very sensitive to pain).

If I were you I would buy a pack of lancets, so you don't have to worry about running out soon.

I use the same one for ages.
